Week 6

(Written by Wendy Countryman)

Prayer for families:
Lord,

It’s fun to ride in the elevator, and the ramp for the wheelchairs looks like a perfect place for skateboarding.

But when I see someone at church who is able to come and worship because we have a ramp and an elevator, I forget about my fun, and thank you that our church is accessible.

Thank you, Lord. Amen.

Prayer for Adults:
Lord,

I know the thought, the objection, “Why do we need to spend all that money for an elevator? I don’t need it?”

And then, one day, there she is, coming to church for the first time in years because now she can enter the sanctuary.

And then, one day, there he is, returning after a stroke, because even with a walker, his church is still within reach.

So thank you, for those who saw it first with eyes of faith, who saw how it could be.  Amen.
